For ICM curriculum purposes, Intensivists in Training must evidence the capabilities outlined in the Anaesthesia HiLLO.
To demonstrate IAC attainment during anaesthetic placements in the ICM curriculum, doctors can:
- Complete equivalent workplace-based assessments, mapping evidence to Anaesthesia HiLLO10
- Obtain consultant sign-off confirming required competencies
- Use the FICM MCR (https://www.ficm.ac.uk/trainingexamstrainingcurriculaandassessment/multiple-consultant-report-pilot) in lieu of the Anaesthetic MTR
- Paper forms for EPA 1 and 2 can be found here: EPA 1 and EPA 2 paper versions and uploaded to the FICM LLP as personal activities and linked to the HiLLO10
N.B. Intensivists in training and CESR applicants in ICM are not required to complete the IAC, but must demonstrate equivalent capabilities through appropriate assessments aligned with the ICM curriculum (e.g. HiLLO10).
Only certificates completed on the current curriculum via LLP appear in the Milestones section.
